Happy Mid-Week, Wednesday!! It is very cold here today!! Yesterday was 50 and today is in the low 20's!! It seems like we never know what kind of weatheri we will get day to day.

Life is full these days. I am having a challenging time with learning the social behaviors of the girls in my child's class. Boy, I am glad I am not a kid today. Between school work and coping with peer pressure, life is stressful for our children. The fun days of childhood are few.

I have started my WW points plus again...I do it without attending the meetings--they are too expensive for my budget. Plus I do the chair exercises. They are wonderful, especially with my back. They have actually helped my pain. Veggies are part of my breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as my snacks. My hubby asked me if I am going to turn into a rabbit because I am eating like one. LOL

Here is sometime I just found: “Someone was hurt before you, wronged before you, hungry before you, frightened before you, beaten before you, humiliated before you… yet, someone survived… You can do anything you choose to do.” –Maya Angelou I so needed to hear this today...hope you find it helpful too.

There is inside you All of the potential To be whatever you want to be; All of the energy To do whatever you want to do. Imagine yourself as you would like to be, Doing what you want to do, And each day, take one step Towards your dream. And though at times it may seem too difficult to continue, Hold on to your dream. One morning you will awake to find That you are the person you dreamed of, Doing what you wanted to do, Simply because you had the courage To believe in your potential And to hold on to your dream. 1831 days ago

Sure would like to hear you and how you are doing. I have had to be under bed rest because my hip was very painful. Going to the hospital to say "Farewell" to my brother-in-law, his quake and funeral was too much for me. I am happy to say I am doing much better today.

December is almost here! Christmas this year is going to be my time for creativity. All this week I am working on making a real Christmas card. Hope to post what it looks like

Here is today's quote: A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles.~ Washington Irving

Hope you have an extra-special day. Please remember--you are valued & loved 1837 days ago

"How wonderful it would be if we could help our children and grandchildren to learn thanksgiving at an early age. Thanksgiving opens the doors. It changes a childâ€™s personality â€¦ thankful children want to give, they radiate happiness, they draw people." [Sir John Templeton]
